A tale of souls and swords eternally retold, now seasoned the Italian way. Stace Harman goes hands-on with the latest guest addition to the Soul Calibur universe and speaks to Project Soul’s Hisaharu Tago.

Famitsu already spoiled some of the big announcements to come out of the Namco Bandai pre-TGS press conference, but there were still some details to be chewed over and enjoyed. Expect big things for the PlayStation Vita launch lineup, Tekken, Ace Combat, Katamari Damacy and – of course, Soulcalibur V.

Soul Calibur V producer Hisaharu Tago told gamesradar that the game’s design aims to be “faster, lighter, and more elegant” than its precursors. Sould Calibur V will feature up to 30 characters, half of whom will be brand new. It’s due on PlayStation 3 and Xbox 360 in 2012; check out the latest screens here.
